Vendor
Parents can now order and pay for uniforms, stationery, labels, tuck shop and more on the Karri app.
Vendors manage their shop and fulfilment tools through a dedicated Ordev platform, Tap4Schools informs the School-vendor operating experience, and Karri unifies the entire payments experience for parents, schools, and vendors.
Bringing school shopping and payments together.
Karri has partnered with Tap4Schools to make school simpler for Parents, Schools and Vendors. Together, we’ve brought Karri’s trusted school-payment experience and Tap4School’s school-vendor expertise into one connected solution.
Think pre-orders for meals, stationery, extramural activities, and any school-specific offering requiring payment. Parents can now browse, order and pay through the familiar Karri App, while vendors manage their products, orders and fulfilment through Ordev.

COVER
Hi Karri Parent
I ran the numbers on my kids’ school fees over the next 18 years.
It was unnerving.
That’s manageable while I’m here and earning. But after two close friends of ours, both parents, died in a freak accident last year, I couldn’t ignore a question I’d been avoiding:
If I were gone tomorrow, my kids would have a roof over their heads and grandparents who love them.
But their education? That’s a different story.
So the Karri team went looking for a solution.
What we found was a category full of life policies that take months to pay out, funds tied up in estates while school fees go unpaid, and products designed for a world that no longer exists.Nothing built for how modern families actually live.
So we built it.
Karri Cover is education insurance designed specifically for South African parents, underwritten by Guardrisk, one of South Africa’s most trusted insurers. Funds are paid into a children’s trust, managed by professional trustees, and paid directly to your child’s school from day one. Not months later.
No medicals. No waiting periods.
And if you don’t claim, it converts into life cover for your family, plus a lump sum for your child at 18.
Last week, I was proud to be the first customer. Today, I’d like to share this with you.If you have children in school or heading there soon, this was built for you.
Regards,
Doug Hoernle
